I think we can all agree this is a very important election [2016]. We don't want to see Hillary Clinton become the president of the United States.

It's fashionable in some circles to be pessimistic about America, about conservative solutions, about the Republican Party. I utterly reject that pessimism.

I'm sorry, there was an effort on the part of the president to have a status of forces agreement, and I concurred in that, and said that we should have some number of troops that stayed on. That was something I concurred with.

Whatever happened to Trump Airlines? How about Trump University? And then there's Trump Magazine and Trump Vodka and Trump Steaks, and Trump Mortgage? A business genius he [Donald Trump] is not.

I understand what it takes to - to make a bright and prosperous future for America again. I - I spent my life in the private sector, not in government. I’m a guy who wants to help, with the experience I have, the American people.
